MS PowerPoint: Creating Posters

Do you need to create a large format poster for a conference or event?

You can use PowerPoint! PowerPoint is a great tool for creating posters, and it's available on all University PCs. You can also copy and paste content from Microsoft Word and Excel quickly and easily.

PowerPoint is not just for presentations, just make sure you set up your slide size to meet your requirements before you start adding content. Often, this will be A1 or A0, but make sure you check your poster guidelines.
